I like lots of midrange 60-90 mphs with a good topend, if I was looking for pure topend I'd be on a MACHZ or T-CAT, in top running condition there still the sled for all out high speed running on table top conditions.....

If it jams, force it. If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway.

Torque for me for all my toys. When I rebuilt my &#39;71 400 Ford for my &#39;53 F-100, I went for torque. Makes 460 ft/pds max. When it starts to drop off the HP picks up and gets maxed out at 390 HP at around 5500 RPM. But the torque is good from idle all the way through the mid range. Yep, I take torque. I&#39;m not much for speed either........until I get enough money someday to start auto-crossing, then I&#39;ll need a car with the HP
